All Chapters of The Billionaire's Revenge: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When their eyes meet, Christian is stunned by the sheer beauty of this woman who introduced herself as Mia. Now with the mud all gone (despite the mud on her sweatshirt and jeans), she looks irresistibly lovely. She has dark almond eyes and a perfect heart-shaped face. A freckle stands out on her straight-edged nose, making her look lively. Her full lips look soft and are now slightly parted. Christian couldn’t take his eyes off her face.Now he feels he was a jerk by being rude and annoyed at her in the beginning. The truth is he couldn’t help his attitude no matter whether she is pretty or not when he was interrupted in his mourning. He thought he would have all the solitude and quietude for himself on this day. The day that meant everything to him and forever changed who he is.Christian has come to this valley in this German town by himself on this day every year since he was able to travel alone. This misty and less traveled place is his sanctuary. In this place, all the sealed m

“Do I have your loyalty? Unconditional loyalty?” Mr. Powell says behind the mahogany table in his magnificent office. Mia couldn’t read his expression. His impassive complexion reminds her of somebody.”Yes,” Mia knows there is no other answer, although she is still in disbelief and shock after she got the call from Mr. Garcia about this job offer this morning. Mr. Garcia never contacted her before. Since they knew each other, it has always been she that makes the phone call.“You only report to me. No one, not even my wife, can order you to do things. You will keep all the things you learn to yourself. There will be serious consequences if don’t follow the rules. Understand?”“I understand.” What has she gotten herself and Calvin into? And most importantly, what will she learn? Mia couldn’t guess.“You can leave now,” Mr. Powell gestures to the door.Mia follows Mr. Garcia out. He stood beside Mr. Powell during the conversation. Mia knows Mr. Powell trusts him because every time she

“Executive assistant for Michael Powell? The Michel Powell? The Billionaire who made headlines buying a $30 million house on the Upper East Side?” Mia has an urge to cover Sophia’s mouth for being so loud. People who are watching the ducks glare at them.“Did I just scare the ducks away in the Pond?” Sophia chuckles with humor in her tone, seeing the ducks waving their wings and flying away. They are casually strolling in Central Park.“Yes, you do,” Mia laughs while shaking her head. Typical Sophia.“Girl, I’m so happy for you. You deserve it.” Sophia gives Mia a genuine tight hug.“This job must pay well. Isn’t it?” Sophia eyes her with a huge mischievous grin.“Well. The pay is a lot better than my last job.” Mia admits.“We are going shopping! You will need new clothes to dress for the new job!” Sophia clamps her hands excitedly. As a fashion designer, nothing excites her more than clothes and shopping.Mia is a little hesitant. Sure, she needs new clothes to dress properly as the

Mia’s heart swells with a mixture of indescribable feeling, shock, incredulity, and most of all, happiness. Although these feelings render her tongue-tied, she could tell a smile is forming on her face. She stares at Chris’s ocean-blue eyes, witnessing a flash of surprise, and maybe joy (is it joy?) on his face. But Chris quickly regains composure. “Mia, I never thought we would meet again,” Chris calls her name in a low, husky voice. Mia shivers at his voice. She has difficulty controlling her body when being around Chris. “It is nice to meet you again, Mr. Wayne.” Mia is glad she finds her composure too. “Call me Chris. Please have a seat.” Chris walks towards Mia in his long legs and leads her to the leather sofa, touching her small of back, sending shivers down her spine. Trying to cover her reaction, Mia immediately reaches for her tote bag after sitting down and takes out a delicately packaged invitation card. “Your father, uh, Mr. Powell’s birthday party will be held in t

Chris knows he is asking too much from Mia. He has no right to ask her to quit her job. It is her life. It is her job. But he doesn’t want her to get hurt in their ugly family business. Anthony and Lily will find ways to use her, antagonize her, and eventually ruin her for good, just like what they have done to the old man’s other assistants. Look what Lindsey has got herself into. A federal charge is awaiting her.“I can’t. And why do you want me to quit?” Mia asks innocently.“Because working for my father is complicated and dangerous.”“As dangerous as you?” Chris likes her wittiness.“Far more dangerous than me.”“I’m not afraid of danger. I can take care of myself. ” And she is also headstrong.Chris realizes it is futile to persuade her out of the job right now. She is too oblivious to the dangers lurking around her. But He cannot let anything happen to her before she sees things clearly. He needs her to be safe and sound. He will personally make sure of that.“Promise me you wi
